Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
The ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into contract with Nickolas Savko and Sons for the Intersection Improvement - Thomas Lane at Olentangy River Road Project for the Division of Design and Construction.

The principal purpose of the project is to add dedicated right-turning lanes from eastbound Thomas Lane to southbound Olentangy River Road, and from southbound Olentangy River Road to westbound Thomas Lane. This project will construct new roadway, curbs, sidewalks, curb ramps, water line, storm line, lighting, trees, and signalization.
A total of 0.03 miles of 6-foot wide concrete sidewalk and 0.12 miles of 7-foot wide concrete sidewalk will be added in this project on the north side of Thomas Lane. A total of 0.07 miles of 6-foot wide concrete sidewalk and 0.08 miles of 7-foot wide sidewalk will be added in this project on the south side of Thomas Lane. 11 ADA ramps will be added or reconstructed in this project.
This project complies with the recommendation of the Pedestrian Thoroughfare Plan because the Division of Mobility Options reviewed walk widths for anticipated future activity, and found the widths to be adequate.
Pedestrian generators and destinations impacting the proposed project exist in the project area. The adjacent Riverside Memorial Hospital is the principal generator of pedestrian traffic.
Pedestrian Quality of Service analyses show a marked improvement in that the Pedestrian Quality of Service Analysis showed a marked improvement of one letter grade from a D to a C with the installation of sidewalk.
The estimated Notice to Proceed date is July 1, 2011. The contract has a completion date of November 11, 2011. The project was let by the Office of Support Services through vendor services. 5 bids were received on May 9, 2011 (5 majority) and tabulated on May 10, 2011 as follows:
